Why Ghana

Why Invest in Ghana

To grow your business and reach new heights one often has to go into new, uncharted markets.

Opportunities in emerging countries offer one of the highest returns in today’s globalized market place. Beyond China, India or Brazil, experts agree that the next great success stories will come from Africa, which is the last frontier market. Ghana’s economy is on the verge of becoming one of the success stories of the second decade of the 21st century as record GDP growth in recent years is projected to stay above 6% in the next 5 years (IMF, 2012).

Ghana is a country with huge economic potential and immense room for development. Besides the fact that it is blessed with numerous natural resources, a fast developing economy and growing middle class, it is also famous for the exceptional hospitality of its inhabitants.

In regional comparison, Ghana is one of the most economically and politically stable countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. It has strong public institutions and governance; sound infrastructure and relatively well developed financial markets (World Economic Forum, 2012). It is 64th on the World Bank’s ‘Doing Business’ report 2013, a ranking that far exceeds any other Sub-Saharan African country, bar South Africa.
